Dear Sir/Madam,

You should have recently received your 2022 Agricultural Resource Management Survey from USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service (NASS). Thank you, if you have already responded. If not, there is still time. A representative will call to set up an interview to assist in the completion of the questionnaire.

The survey will ask questions about farm production practices. Please have your fertilizer and pesticide spray records available to speed up the survey process. You may also receive an email reminder if you opted for email service.

The information you provide will be used for statistical purposes only. In accordance with federal law, your responses will be kept confidential and will not be disclosed in identifiable form. For more information about this survey, visit nass.usda.gov/go/arms. If you have questions or difficulty completing your survey, please call toll-free 888-424-7828.
